Vijaygarh

Vijaygarh is a hill fort above the wooded country of the Son basin. Its walls and gateways enclose old buildings and water tanks on the high ground, commanding the surrounding approaches. The fort was associated with the rulers of the region and later with Chait Singh of Banaras. It stands among the strongholds that marked the upland frontier between the Ganges plain and the forested plateau to the south.
